How to get rabbnitsy and her larvae out of the apartment: proven means

Often, butterflies enter into those rooms in which increased humidity is constantly maintained and rotting organic matter is present in sufficient quantities. These insects live in sewers and sewers, and the neighborhood with them can not be called pleasant. Who is such a bogeyman and what means can be used to destroy it?

Characteristic

The common mosquito, or the sewer fly, is a small insect whose body length is not more than 4 mm. On a small head, she has a short antennae and a pair of eyes. There are small wings, about 2 mm in length. Both the body and wings are covered with small hairs. The integument is scaly, the color is steel or somewhat silver. Despite the presence of wings, these insects fly extremely rarely, and move mainly due to the blowing of the wind.
Almost constantly, the wings of the butterfly are at rest and are folded roof-shaped on the body. Her life span is 2-3 weeks, and many adults may not eat at all.

Metamorphosis

To attract the male, the female secrets a special secret, and since the female butterflies are very unpretentious to the living conditions, their reproduction is quite rapid. In one clutch, there can be from 30 to 100 eggs, of which, after 2 days, larvae appear.

On a note! The bogeyman has a very “adventurous" natural enemy - this is a bolador spider. He is able to emit the same smell as females during the mating period, which attracts males, and they die in its web!

Butterfly larvae prefer rotting plant debris. They develop in them and feed on them. The formation of the body of young animals takes from 7 to 20 days. At the end of the first week of life, the larva turns into a tiny midge, and after another two weeks - into a mature adult.

The butterfly larvae have small antennae and a pair of eyes on their heads. The body is divided into segments. Sclerites having a transverse arrangement are clearly visible on the dorsal side. Because of them, the body seems shaggy.

Reasons for appearing in apartments

The damsels are attracted by dampness and a relatively low air temperature, and therefore this sewer fly settles mainly in moist basements and in technical rooms. Such places are ideal for their normal reproduction. In apartments, they fall as follows:

• through cracks in floors and floors;
• through holes in the sewer;
• from clogged sinks;
• through risers through which water is supplied.

As a result, most often insects find themselves in bathrooms.

On a note! Often, butterflies are found in apartments in early spring and early fall. At this time, the heating is not yet turned on and in certain rooms high humidity remains!

It’s not difficult to find the butterflies in the apartment. They, as a rule, do not hide, but sit on damp walls and ceilings. At the same time, large accumulations of parasites in residential premises are quite rare, since the bulk lives in basements.

Methods of struggle

Often it’s quite possible to get rid of a bum butterfly mechanically - just slam it at a meeting. But at the same time, some additional activities will be required:

• after the destruction of the butterflies, the main task of the apartment owners is to eliminate excess moisture as quickly as possible - this will help prevent the re-emergence of parasites. To implement this condition, you must create a normal air exchange: dry the room with aeration, opening all windows and doors. And so that the walls and other surfaces dry faster, you can put a fan;
  

  Recommendation! In the absence of a fan, it is allowed to use a regular hair dryer, which will eliminate traces of moisture even in the most inaccessible places!

• It is advisable to install additional heaters in the apartment - they will not allow the penetration of the lady worker not only into the bathroom, but also into other rooms;
• inspect the floor and walls for cracks, if any, then they should be repaired immediately;
• check the sewer collectors through which wastewater and storm water are transported - they must be clean, without traces of organic deposits;
• install protective nets at the outputs of the ventilation ducts, while it is desirable that they have a small mesh size.

Folk remedies

• "Raptor";
• “Combat”, etc.

But in addition to these products, it is advisable to purify the effluent using ammonium salt. This powder in an amount of 200 g is poured into the pipes of the bathtub and washbasins and after 5 minutes 200 ml of boiling water is poured there.

But the most preferred option is prevention. It is not difficult to carry out - it is enough to observe the simplest hygiene, which consists in the regular release of the room from debris and dirt, ventilation and washing of walls and floors.
